Working with Aldec TySOM boards in Vivado requires configuring some parameters of the processing system module and GPIO. Configuration is unique for TySOM-1-7Z030 and TySOM-2-7Z045 boards. This document describes how to obtain and install these configurations in the Vivado tool so users are not required to configure parameters such as voltage levels, memory controllers, and timing delays.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to use UART to interface the TySOM-1-7Z030 board with other systems. The UART interface enables us to view serial output from the board which can be useful for monitoring. This project has both a hardware and software part.

This document describes the process for building an embedded Linux OS for the Aldec TySOM platform using the Yocto project, an open source collaboration project for creating custom Linux-based systems.

This tutorial provides instructions for using the basic features of the Active-HDL simulator. Active-HDL is an integrated environment designed for development and verification of VHDL, Verilog, System Verilog, EDIF, and System C based designs. In this tutorial we use a Sample VHDL design called PressController from the Active-HDL installation to perform design entry and simulation.

An HDL code breakpoint can be set in HDL source files that are VHDL, Verilog, and SystemVerilog. A breakpoint can also be set in OVA and PSL code, for example in lines that contain assert or cover statements.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to create a hardware project in Xilinx’s Vivado Design Suite and create a software project in Xilinx’s SDK for the TySOM-1-7Z030 board. First you will create the hardware part, then you will create a software application to blink the onboard LEDs using standalone OS. In the Zynq architecture, you are able to implement the design either in a bare metal mode or by using an embedded Linux OS platform.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to create a hardware project in Xilinx’s Vivado Design Suite and create a software project in Xilinx’s SDK for the TySOM-1-7Z030 board. First you will create the hardware part, then you will create a software application to blink the onboard LEDs using onboard switches. At the end of this tutorial, you will also learn how to program the project onto the TySOM-1-7Z030 board using a JTAG programmer. To program the FPGA using a microSD card, you can follow the “Programming the TySOM-1-7Z030 board using a microSD card guide”.
